RLC: has all the attributes but is missing that ‘Chelsea attitude’ and fire to unleash his potential. Barkley looks like he’s mentally clued in and fully accepting of the task on hand. Both are relatively unpolished so I give the edge to Barkley
CHO: Definitely the real deal. Once he perfects his shooting (after cutting to his right) he’ll be almost unstoppable. The ceiling is too high and we’ve only seen a sliver of his capability.
Midfield gaps: as well as they performed yesterday it’s clear that Kanté is a massive key (in place of fabregas) to balance the midfield. Also once Hazard slots in, I expect his productivity to increase tangibly.
Striker: massive gap. Morata is not it if the club hopes to at a minimum finish top 4 this season.
Otherwise, so far so good.
